Issue/Introduction

In Jaspersoft  6.4.3 for spectrum reporting  if you click on View -> UI Samples   

you will get the following exception:

 

Is there a way to prevent the exception? It looks like that is Jaspersoft 7.1.1 that option was removed....

Environment

Release : 10.4.x Jaspersoft 6.4.3 

Component : Spectrum Core / SpectroSERVER

Cause

The sampleFlow.xml  is missing from the <CABI_INSTALL_DIR>\apache-tomcat\webapps\jasperserver-pro\WEB-INF\flows thus the exception is generated clicking on it.

Resolution

Work-around:

1) download the two attached files sampleFlow.xml   and  jasperserver_messages.properties 

2) copy the sampleFlow.xml into the <CABI_INSTALL_DIR>\apache-tomcat\webapps\jasperserver-pro\WEB-INF\flows (eg. C:\Program Files\CA\SC\CA Business Intelligence\apache-tomcat\webapps\jasperserver-pro\WEB-INF\flows)

3) replace the jasperserver_messages.properties found in <CABI_INSTALL_DIR>\apache-tomcat\webapps\jasperserver-pro\WEB-INF\bundles with the one downloaded.

Result:

from View the option UI Samples is not displayed and if you click on the blank line nothing happens and you will be redirected to the Home page.
